Miss Teen Rodeo Oregon Contestants

Brittany Rose Michelle Hall - Age: 6

My name is Brittany Rose Michelle Hall. I was born 6 yrs ago and they all said I was as big as my name, my personality included. I live with my mom, Christa, Paul, and three sisters; Courtney, Tanna, and Brooke. I live in Scappoose and my brother, Jordan is in the Navy. I miss him more than anything. I am in kindergarten and I alike it a lot. I have 5 dogs, 2 cats, and 1 horse, who's name is Magic which I love to ride all by myself. My most favorite animal is my miniature goat Sally. I want to play soccer in the fall.

When I grow up I want to be a Rodeo Queen like my favorite cousin Stephanie Esterly, then a ballerina. I want to become Miss Rodeo Oregon Sweetheart because I want to be like the other queens, and wear sparkly cloths and go fast in the arena but not to fast because magic goes really fast.

Destiny Kathleen Barney - Age: 6

Howdy all I am, Destiny Barney most call me Dez or B.dot! I was born and raised in Joseph, Oregon. I live on a ranch with my mom Vixen, my older brother Jalyn and my Jeffrey. We have lots of cats; a Jack Russell named “George”, red heeler named “Roper” and a blue heeler named “Hooey”. We raise dun horses. I spend most my days either riding my many horses or my red 4 wheeler with my pink helmet. My favorite riding horse is “Chinoa” a buckskin paint mare her name means “white dove” in Indian, I had to retire her. But, I recently got a new horse and her name is ZZ, she is a lot faster and a bay quarter horse! I am a very busy 6 year old doing open horse shows, parades, junior rodeos and trail riding with my mom and grammy-Sue, T-Ball and kindergarten. I love to read and do art projects.

When I grow up I want to be a cowgirl- riding horses and get to ride anywhere I want. I want to be friends with lots of people. I want to help animals.

I want to become Miss Rodeo Oregon Sweetheart I did it last year and I enjoyed going to events to tell them about my pageant, and rodeo. I liked dressing up and being pretty. I am just a girl wanting to have fun and look pretty. I am going to be so happy when I do it, it will be awesome to meet people and smile lots! We get to do a parade this year and that is better.

Alex Syversen - Age: 6

Alex Syversen has been riding horses since she was three years old and presently takes horse-riding lessons from Debbie Tupper at the Double T Ranch. She has also been taking two classes of ballet, jazz and tap lessons at the Oregon Coast Dance Center. She dances in the Nutcracker Ballet during Christmas and at the annual June dance recitals. She loves to read and enjoys doing crafts that she enters in the Tillamook County Fair every year. Alex enjoys spending time with her brother, Ryder, and riding ATV’s with her Mom and Dad, Becky and Greg Syversen. She spends most of the summer traveling from Alaska to Florida and back again with her Grandparents, William and Linda Ryan.

When I grow up my dream is to live on a horse ranch with a blue barn. I would teach little children with disabilities to ride horses because it is great therapy. I would like teaching girls and boys how to ride horses and help make their dreams come true. I want to become Miss Rodeo Oregon Sweetheart because I have always admired the Rodeo Queens. They have set a positive example for me and all girls. I would like to have the chance to be in a position where my behavior could set an example, too. I have been riding horses since I was three years old, and horses have taught me to respect all animals.

Hope Richman - Age: 6

Hope Richman is the 6-year-old daughter of Nicole and TJ Richman. Hope lives with her parents, two brothers and sister in Warren, Oregon. She attends Kindergarten in Scappoose, Oregon. Hope loves to dance and ride her horse Badger. She enjoys playing with her brothers and friends, reading books, watching movies, riding her quad, jumping on the trampoline, and helping her Dad fix his race car. Her favorite activity is hanging out with rodeo queens, as she looks up to them as role models and aspires to be a rodeo queen someday. She would also like to be a cheerleader and a dancer.

When I grow up I want to be a cheerleader, a dancer, and most especially a rodeo queen. I love doing all three of these things and so I would like to do them all in one way or another.

I want to become Miss Rodeo Oregon Sweetheart because I love rodeos and horses. I have gotten to meet many rodeo queens and princesses and admire them. I would like the opportunity to fulfill the same role – supporting rodeo and being a good example to other children.

Kyra Wood - Age: 5

This four year old loves all things horses. She is the daughter of Jef and Alison Wood of Sublimity, Oregon. Her favorite horse is a white quarter horse named Lil Bit. The two share a love of running, playing with friends and eating treats. Kyra is very excited to participate in the Miss Rodeo Oregon organization!

When I grow up I would like to be a horse breeder because I love horses and I want to take care of them and help them to have babies. I would also like to volunteer at an animal shelter to help the animals get better when they are sick.

I want to become Miss Rodeo Oregon Sweetheart I would like to be Miss Rodeo Oregon Sweetheart because I want to ride horses and be famous. I love how the Rodeo Queens are really pretty and kind and I want to be just like them.

When I grow up I want to be a cop so that I can keep people safe and so that the jail breakers can’t get out and hurt people.
